@fictionadventurer replied to your post: I’m hosting writing group tomorrow for the first...
An Unhelpful List of Short Things You Could Maybe Write: 1) A limerick/bredlik 2) A page from one of the in-world books 3) A description of a character you haven't described yet 4) A letter written by one of the characters (Elystan's infamous Lamplight letter? A fan letter to Levico? One of Mara's letters describing palace life?) 5) In-character shopping lists 6) A detailed clothing description 7) Antavia's infamous review
8) Edit a couple of sentences of something you've already written and pretend it's new. 9) Plagiarism. 10) A summary of the next scene you want to write 11) A history book description looking back at one of the characters/events 12) One sentence. (May or may not be in an existing language)
If this makes things worse I'm sorry. But also just want to say that it's ok to lower your standards (whether for the things you write or your own expectation to write things).
“A Helpful List of Short Things You Could Maybe Write”: fixed it for you :)
Those are all fantastic ideas (except maybe plagiarism :P), and I would love to try some of them. I won’t be able to this time (going to just shove three raw unfinished pieces at them and accept whatever grief they give me), but I will keep them in mind. Thank you so much for being such a fount of ideas; I appreciate it a lot.
